Biodiversity and Non-Deforestation Commitment
Environmental Protection

In addition to actively implementing energy-saving and carbon-reducing measures to mitigate climate change, E Ink also recognizes ecological and biological conservation as a key action to practice environmental sustainability in the development. E Ink is committed to take actions that consider environmental ecology, biodiversity, and forest conservation to contribute to the enhancement of environmental and social well-being, and to respond to United Nations Sustainable Development Goal 15, "Life on Land" by conserving and sustainably utilizing terrestrial ecosystems, preventing land degradation, and ensuring biodiversity.


E Ink is committed to take action from its own operations and call on its supply chain (or value chain) partners to support and reduce negative impacts on the ecological environment, avoid deforestation, and promote the positive value of environmental ecology and biodiversity. Through management governance and supervision by the Corporate Sustainability Committee, E Ink will promote and implement its commitment to maintaining the environment and ecosystem.
